A solar battery operation is based on the light getting on the photosensitive surface characterised with a “redundancy” of electrons, the latter start shifting into the next in-depth layer of the battery made of “electron-poor” materials. The electromotive force occurs which leads to the emergence of electric current. In fact the two layers interact as electrodes of a regular battery.

Search for materials fit to make solar batteries is of great interest for researchers. Materials…

This international conference, coming to your area, is a big deal. The COMS conference (Commercialization of Micro-Nano Systems) will be held in Greensboro, North Carolina, August 28-31.

Speakers include an impressive list of national and international leaders in this field, from both the business, academic, and federal and state levels. Conference topics include relaying the latest information on technology transfer, manufacturing processes, facilities, investment,…

When exposed to biological fluids such as blood plasma, nanoparticles adsorb proteins and other biomolecules from the fluid. The adsorption is a dynamic process. The composition of the so-called protein corona depends on the respective concentrations of the proteins in the fluid and on their affinities to the nanoparticles. Understanding the structural and dynamic properties of the corona at the molecular level is necessary to use nanoparticles safely in industry or nanomedicine.…

﻿Innovation Convention 2011 5-6 December 2011 Square – Brussels Meeting Centre
DG RTD is on 5-6 December organising the first Innovation Convention, to take place in Brussels.

1200 participants are expected to this important event, and it will include a big exhibition to showcase exciting research and innovation results being developed in Europe, for which we are launching today a call for exhibitors.

The call will be open until 31 August. Any project funded by FP… Continue

The Dahlem Research School at Freie Universität Berlin has established a new research fellowship program called “COFUND” for international researchers. The program is co-funded by the Marie Curie COFUND program of the European Commission. Its purpose is to reinforce the international dimension of junior researchers by supporting highly-qualified postdocs from abroad.

Following extensive consultation and re-design, the new SAFENANO website offers a wealth of up-to-date information of value to industry, researchers, policy makers and the wider public in addressing nanotechnology safety issues:

Institutions all over the world always vie for subscribing best and latest journals which cater to the ever growing demand of their ingenious student and faculties .The development of science and technology infrastructure in India has resulted into tremendous amount of research work & publications.

STM(Science, technology and Medical ) has built up a strong research and development base in both the governmental and private sectors in all areas of Science, Technology and…

The Organic Electronics Association (OEA) recently released their latest OE brochure, to which they attached a very cool demonstrator - an organic solar cell (PV) powered flashlight.

What feels like a bit of cardboard actually contains a a roll-to-roll printed organic solar cell, a flexible lithium-ion battery and a printed electronic circuitry. And of course a small white LED. The association says that this can "give you the feeling" of the next generation of electronics: thin,… Continue

We are seeking a candidate student to work on the development of a multi-purpose computer code MesoBioNano Explorer (MBN Explorer). This computer program was originally developed to study molecular systems of varied level of complexity. In particular, MBN Explorer is suited to compute the system's energy, to optimize structures, as well as to simulate the molecular dynamics. MBN Explorer allows using a broad variety of interatomic potentials, to model different molecular systems, such as atomic… Continue

First Announcement

Good day,

As a regular subscriber to FSRM course announcements and news we thought that you would be interested in an exciting new conference on electronic printing. Swiss e-Print is the first conference in Switzerland dedicated to this rapidly developing new field. The FSRM is an organising partner of this…

Welcome - about us

Welcome! Nanopaprika was cooked up by Hungarian chemistry PhD student in 2007. The main idea was to create something more personal than the other nano networks already on the Internet. Community is open to everyone from post-doctorial researchers and professors to students everywhere.

There is only one important assumption: you have to be interested in nano!

Nanopaprika is always looking for new partners, if you have any idea, contact me at editor@nanopaprika.eu
